Fun game

I had this game as a kid and now wanted to share it with my own kids. It's definitely challenging, and the characters/storyline he found entertaining. The particular (used) cartridge I got does have some issues - it often takes 3 or 4 tries before it will load properly.Read full review...

Battletoads for Game Boy

When I won this battletoads gameboy game, I wasn't quite sure to expect, having played the battletoads NES game. In many ways, it has the same gameplay controls, level setup, even the story behind the game is similar. Your fellow battletoads (named Rash and Pimple) have been captured by the Dark Queen, who reminds me of the teenage mutant ninja turtles' Shredder, and it's up to you to travel to planet Armagedda and free them. Basically, there are a certain amount of levels you must go through, beating up anyone (or anything) that tries to stop you. I haven't managed to finish this game beginning to end, but I do know the there are levels where you ride a jet ski through a swamp, and scale down a crater via a "turbo cable"). For being an old gameboy game, this game is action packed and is perfect for that long trip if you're going to be sitting down for a while. The boss introduces themselves and/or taunts you before the level starts, which I think is an interesting touch, and the characters are quite odd looking, but the game isn't disgusting (no blood or gore, the worse I've seen on this game is a river serpents brain, which just looks like a ball of spaghetti. There is always a dangerous enemy or obstacle lurking ahead, but the action isn't too fast or too slow, it's just right. The battletoads' moves are unique from other video game characters in that their fists and feet grow really big when they use their moves (i.e. kiss my fist makes their fist get really big and when they use the big bad boot, they put on an enormous boot and promptly kick an opponent off of the screen). The graphics are good, you can even see everything on a properly adjusted old Game Boy. Now for the bad parts, the most annoying thing about this game, as well as the other NES battletoads game, is the sometimes ridiculous difficulty of the game. Yes, you have a few lives and continues, but its not enough. Plus, when the game ends, you have to start all over again, a frustrating ordeal when you have gotten far in the game. Nonetheless, this game is a keeper for me, and is still a very good game considering it is for an outdated system, and I strongly recommend it for someone who likes the battletoads or nostalgic action video games.Read full review...

Great Game.

It's A Lot Of Fun To Play. It Follows The NES Story Line, But The Levels Are Different, As Well As The Way The Enemies Look. Their Are Even More Enemies In the Gameboy Version Compared To The NES Version. Overall, The Game Is Great, I would Recommend It.Read full review...

This is a classic game.

I haven't seen this game since I was 10 years old. I have been trying to find this game for a very long time and I finally have it. I'm looking forward in playing this game when I have a chance this week to remember a classic game that Nintendo had. Thank you.Read full review...
